A photoinduced oxidative alkoxycarbonylation of alkenes initiated by intermolecular addition of alkoxycarbonyl radicals has been demonstrated. Employing alkyl formates as alkoxycarbonyl radical sources, a range of α,β-unsaturated esters were obtained with good regioselectivity and E selectivity under ambient conditions.

The [2 + 2] photodimerization of chalcones, cinnamates and cinnamamides can be effectively catalyzed by heteroleptic copper(I) complexes. The reactions were carried out under mild reaction conditions and the products were obtained in 20–72% yield under visible light irradiation. The copper-based photocatalyst comprised of the rigid phenanthroline ligand with substituents at the 2,9-positions and the 4,7-positions showed high activity in the photodimerization via an energy transfer pathway.

The value of catalytic dehydrogenation of aliphatics (CDA) in organic synthesis has remained largely underexplored. Known homogeneous CDA systems often require the use of sacrificial hydrogen acceptors (or oxidants), precious metal catalysts, and harsh reaction conditions, thus limiting most existing methods to dehydrogenation of non- or low-functionalized alkanes. Here we describe a visible-light-driven, dual-catalyst system consisting of inexpensive organophotoredox and base-metal catalysts for room-temperature, acceptorless-CDA (Al-CDA). Initiated by photoexited 2-chloroanthraquinone, the process involves H atom transfer (HAT) of aliphatics to form alkyl radicals, which then react with cobaloxime to produce olefins and H2. This operationally simple method enables direct dehydrogenation of readily available chemical feedstocks to diversely functionalized olefins. For example, we demonstrate, for the first time, the oxidant-free desaturation of thioethers and amides to alkenyl sulfides and enamides, respectively. Moreover, the system's exceptional site selectivity and functional group tolerance are illustrated by late-stage dehydrogenation and synthesis of 14 biologically relevant molecules and pharmaceutical ingredients. Mechanistic studies have revealed a dual HAT process and provided insights into the origin of reactivity and site selectivity.

We have developed hypervalent iodine(iii) induced oxidative olefination of primary and secondary benzylamines using 2C-Wittig reagents, which provides easy access to α,β-unsaturated esters. Mild reaction conditions, good to excellent yields with high (E) selectivity, and a broad substrate scope are the key features of this reaction. We have successfully carried out the gram-scale synthesis of α,β-unsaturated esters.

Mizoroki-Heck reaction of unstrained aryl ketone with acrylate/styrene is accomplished via palladium-catalyzed ligand-promoted C-C bond cleavage. Various (hetero)aryl ketones are compatible in the reaction, affording the alkene product in good to excellent yields. Further applications in the late-stage olefination of some drugs, natural products, and fragrance-derived aryl ketones demonstrate the synthetic utility of this protocol. By employing ketone as both the directing group and the leaving group, 1,2-bifunctionalization is achieved via sequential ortho-C-H alkylation/ipso-Heck olefination.

Herein, we present the first example of synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones from cinnamic thioesters via a stereoselective phase-transfer-catalyzed domino Michael-cyclization reaction with acetylacetone. The reaction proceeded under the catalysis of Cinchona-derived quaternary ammonium phenoxide that, in combination with inorganic bases, provided 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones in yields of up to 93% and enantioselectivities of up to 88% enantiomeric excess.

Mild [2 + 2] photodimerization of enone substrates was induced by donor-acceptor fluorophores. Enone substrates were activated efficiently for anti-head to head dimerizations with a high yield (up to 83%) and high selectivity. The adjustable excited state potential also allows donor-acceptor fluorophores to be used for isomerization of the above substrates, confirming the potential of donor-acceptor fluorophores as energy transfer photocatalysts.
Pd-catalyzed oxidative Heck-type arylation of vinyl ketones, alkenes, and acrylates with Sb-aryl-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azastibocines
Murata, Yuki,Kakusawa, Naoki,Arakawa, Yukako,Hayashi, Yukako,Morinaga, Shun,Ueda, Masaaki,Hyodo, Tadashi,Matsumura, Mio,Yamaguchi, Kentaro,Kurita, Jyoji,Yasuike, Shuji

The Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of Sb-aryl-1,5-azastibocines with alkenes are described. The reactions of azastibocines with alkenes such as vinyl ketones, alkenes, and acrylates in the presence of 10 mol% PdCl2 at 80 °C in DMA under aerobic conditions produced Heck adducts in moderate-to-excellent yields. Single-crystal X-ray and NMR analysis revealed that the aryl donors in this reaction, the Sb-aryl-1,5-azastibocines, are hypervalent compounds that display N–Sb intramolecular non-bonding interaction. These are the first examples of Pd-catalyzed Heck-type arylations using heterocyclic hypervalent organoantimony compounds. Although the reactions proceeded efficiently with the azastibocines, they hardly progressed with trivalent and pentavalent triarylantimony reagents.

The fluoride anion-initiated reaction of phenyl aromatic carboxylates with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane (Me3SiCF3) that results in the formation of O-silyl-protected 2-aryl-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanols is reported. A phenoxide anion, generated during the trifluoromethylation of the phenyl carboxylate, also activates the Me3SiCF3, which permits a catalytic amount of the fluoride anion source to be used. Various functional groups, which can be used for further elaboration, are tolerated in the reaction.
Enol Ester Intermediate Induced Metal-Free Oxidative Coupling of Carboxylic Acids and Arylboronic Acids

A facile, efficient and environmentally friendly methodology for the preparation of phenolic esters is realized via metal-free coupling of carboxylic acids and arylboronic acids. This sequential one pot reaction, employing methyl propiolate as an activating reagent, proceeds through the formation of enol ester intermediate, followed by a nucleophilic attack on the C-O bond under the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide. These studies display that enol esters, despite previously being overlooked as synthetic intermediates, would be the valuable building blocks for developing carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond-forming reactions.
